For the love of (insert your favorite writer), ALWAYS WRITE DOWN YOUR IDEAS!

Today I was trying to nap (around 9am) at least 20-40 minutes, recharge my batteries before going about the rest of my work-filled day. So, I was in this space between falling asleep and being awake, that you’re kinda sleeping but at the same time have full awareness you’re not fully sleeping. I don’t know…

The delight of living in another place (for a couple of days)

Staying at another person’s house, laying on their couch and sleeping in their bed feels like a mini vacation even though you’re still working your regular schedule. It’s a direct change in your daily routine (usually for the better). A new route to work and back to the house means that you have to leave…

Finally! Sunlight and nice weather

It’s the middle of March, and you know what that means. Spring is just around the corner, literally a few days away. We’re already getting temperatures of high 50’s and low 60’s. Just today, I went for a run by the river route at noon, wearing just a dry-fit shirt and nylon running pants. It…

One step away from codependency

Have you ever met one of those couples that tell their partners ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING? They’re fucking insufferable.

You have 3 wishes; what do you want?

So, you stumbled upon a genie’s lamp, dragon’s lair, magic totem, ancient goldfish, benevolent demigod, whatever wish granter creature in you head, and now you get 3 wishes —tale as old as time (or at least middle eastern folklore)—. What are you getting besides the obvious? Meaning:– World Peace– End World Hunger– No more life…

A realist’s daydream lasts about 2 seconds

Everyone is different, but they can ultimately fit inside certain similar groups. Not everyone is unique, but some people definitely are and cannot be lumped with others in the same group. Well, they can be put in the “unique” group together, if you wanna get technical about it. Ever since I realized what exactly it…

Not being ‘good enough’ but still being ‘better than the rest’

I’m a firm believer of “If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.” Yes, everybody has a different breaking point and triggers. And yes, we should be emphatic towards others ‘cause we don’t know what they’re going through. Ok, to avoid being judged as an insensitive asshole, I’ll try to be be…
